Has anyone re-rigged their M15 with swageless fittings? I'm thinking about rigging my M15 with Hayn Hi-Mod eyes (part 14CTE18). Riggingonly.com has them for only $28.91 each, and it appeals to me to re-rig myself with just hand tools- and that I can then replace the rigging in the future with just $30 worth of 316 wire. The Hi-Mod doesn't have any cone or other parts to replace when disassembling and reassembling, so it can be taken apart regularly to inspect also. I have a couple questions: -I've seen that 15.5" is the spec for factory shrouds, would it be better to just make the new ones exactly that long instead of measuring the old ones? -If I use the old shrouds as a length template, how much length should I remove (if any) to account for stretch in the new wire? -How much length should I add to the forestay to allow for proper rake? My current three stays are the same length, and I have the forestay in the very last hole on the stay adjuster in order to get enough weather helm. Tyler Davis, CA M15 #157 "Defiant"
